> They're literally a cryptostring stored in your password manager just like your other passwords.

So I can copy paste them somewhere or move them around without "Credential Exchange Protocol (CXP) and Credential Exchange Format (CXF)"?




You can copy paste them using those formats. What are you arguing about here actually?


How does one get a passkey from iCloud into one of these formats?

"You can't take your passkeys from Apple Passwords"

s/iCloud/1Password?

"There's not a way to import/export passkeys"

s/iCloud/Google?

So "you can copy paste them using those formats, if you can get them into those formats in the first place".


Apple actually does allow airdropping passkeys across devices and iCloud users!

It’s clearly not (just) a security but a lock-in feature.


With Keepass you can, at least. Other ones not so much.
